And now to review
    F          D7
For me and for you
        G7            G7
And for US of whom in sciences we trust…

Verse 1:
   C
Smoke's not just smoke
   F
mingling with the air
          G7        F
it's a particular reaction
      G7             F
of particulates in attraction
   C
to other things
   G
to science things
  C
dinosaurs exist
       F
in the plastic toys of kids
G7          F
made from petroleum
     G7              F
that came from crude oil which then
    G7        F
was just hydrocarbons
           G7                   F
stuff decomposing in all of our gardens
G7        F         C
even when dinosaurs lived
        G
next to dinosaur gardens

Chorus:
   C                   F
how can our synapses be so happy when they're
        G7                                   C      G7        C      G7       C
starved of all the facts that make them fire around real fast inside our brains?
                             F
brains: are made to study microbiology
           G7
and physics and astronomy
      C        G7     C      G7       C   G7         C      G7    C
and motion, in the ocean, in the air, or over there, i do not care
                                      F
care: what you study just so long as you make a buddy out of
  G7
meteors, geology
       C         G7        C     G7      C
and matter, dark or light, it doesn't matter
                                  F
matter: of fact, to me, there's commonality
        G7

are brain, brain, brain, brain
  G7     C

Verse 2:
     C                        F
a big blazing fire is the opposite of a plant
        G7           F
it's an exothermic reaction
       G7
making heat and light
               F
and CO2 in its action
G7
all from a breath
        F               C
of what me and what you survive on

take a big comical breath:
G
oxygen
      C                          F
now photosynthesis opposes a fire in every instance
        G7            F
it's an endothermic reaction
      G7
using heat and light
               F
and CO2 as its passion
G7
and creates the breath
     F                  C
that me and that you survive on

take a big comical breath:
G
oxygen

Chorus:
